2. Futures Earn Rules
2.1 Introduction to Basic Futures Earn Rules
- Futures Earn assets are calculated based on the "principal" in the user's futures account, i.e., the wallet balance in the user's futures account.
- Users only need to manually enable Futures Earn. Subsequently, the "principal" will automatically calculate and distribute yields. The "principal" is used for yield calculation while still serving as margin for futures trading.
- Principal = Available + Frozen + Margin - Trial Funds
- Please refer to the event page for the specific cryptocurrencies supported by Futures Earn.
- Trial funds do not participate in Futures Earn interest calculations.
- Futures Earn yields are completely free of charge.
2.2 Futures Earn Yield Calculation and Distribution Rules
Currency | Futures Position Value | Interest-Bearing Principal | APR |
USDT | < $50,000 | 50,000 USDT *The portion exceeding 50,000 USDT (up to 100,000 USDT) enjoys a 7% APR | 7% |
≥ $50,000 | 10% | ||
≥ $100,000 | 15% | ||
≥ $500,000 | 20% | ||
USDC | < $50,000 | 50,000 USDC *The portion exceeding 50,000 USDC (up to 100,000 USDC) enjoys a 7% APR | 7% |

≥ $100,000 | 15% | ||
≥ $500,000 | 20% | ||

- APR values and principal limit rules are dynamically adjusted based on market conditions and platform rules. Please refer to the Futures Earn page for actual rules. Follow MEXC platform announcements to stay updated.
- Only the position value of USDT/USDC-margined contracts is calculated (position values are aggregated). Coin-margined contracts are not included in the calculation.
- Futures position value is calculated based on net positions: For pairs with the same base currency, the net position quantity is used. The specific algorithm is:
- abs(USDT Long Position Quantity x Cost Price - USDT Short Position Quantity x Cost Price + USDC Long Position Quantity x Cost Price - USDC Short Position Quantity x Cost Price)
- Position value snapshots are taken 3 times daily, and the average of the 3 snapshots is used.
- Futures account wallet balance snapshots are taken 3 times daily, and the minimum value is used as the interest-bearing principal.
